GTA local sale only. You will have to pick it up from the west end of Mississauga, at a convenient, private location I have.
Hungarian made. As far as I can tell it is a FÉG manufactured, proofed in 1974. 12 gauge, 3" magnum. Export grade or "deluxe export" 100E/200E series. It has a "silver" receiver, with game bird and floral engravings. The buttstock has a slight rightward cast, so not ambidextrous. Probably with a modified choke and a full choke. I can't confirm, but that is usual and there are different silver markings on each muzzle. It has an extractor, tang safety, bead sight.
It's actually kind of posh, some grime or rust here and there that could be cleaned up. Some wear on the engravings. The real problem is that the double trigger assembly has been taken apart and any pins for the triggers are missing. I'm not sure but some drilling may have been done inside the trigger housing. There may be springs missing that interact with the L-shape bars that touch the sears. In either case I don't know enough to tell exactly. Either way it is a fixer-upper. There is also a 3/4" chip on the front grip, shown in pictures. That aside, it's pretty nice. It could be a light project gun.
